Lyrics of I Want You by Marvin Gaye
Where do you start with a song like Marvin Gaye’s I Want You? A piece that I’m sure most people observe as sonic perfection. All of them ascribing a different meaning, their possess personal story, to the music and lyrics. Is it simply a cherish / lust song, a hymn, a celebration, or is it something more? For me it’s shot through with this attractive melancholy, this incredible unrequited yearning.* Its combination of congas, low-key strings, and acid-edged guitar, creating an unshakeable air of anticipation and ache.
“Don’t you wanna care, ain’t it lonely out there?”
But maybe that’s just an ugly duckling’s point of view.
Leon Ware and Arthur T-Boy Ross (Diana’s ill-fated brother) were the writers, but fancy everything he recorded, Marvin inhabits, lives the tune. Drawing on a sadness, a sorrow, way, way deep down. Soaring from his tenor to upper notes that always construct me tear up. His soul on show. Pain palpable. In part, a reflection of the turbulent “triangular” relationship that he found himself in.**
